ʿImrān added, “Later on I met her and asked how she was. She said, ‘Since that day, ʿImrān, I have never gone hungry!’

4- Qabīṣah ibn Jābir reported:
“We used to alternate with a woman in reciting a surah of the Quran so that we might learn it. I once set out with an elderly woman from Banū Asad, accompanied by two other men, to visit Ibn Masʿūd at his house. When he noticed that her forehead was gleaming, he asked, ‘Do you shave it?’ She took offense and retorted, ‘The one who shaves her forehead is your own wife!’ He replied, ‘Go in to her; if she really does that, then I repudiate her.’ The woman went inside, then returned and said, ‘No, by Allah, I have never seen her do it.’ ʿAbdullāh ibn Masʿūd then said, ‘I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ declare:
“Allah has cursed the women who tattoo and those who have themselves tattooed…”’—and so on.

5- Abū Asmāʾ al-Raḥabī related that he visited Abū Dharr al-Ghifārī—may Allah be pleased with him—while he was staying at al-Rabadha. With him was a black woman, gaunt from hunger. He (Abū Dharr) said, “Do you not see what this little black woman keeps urging me to do…?”

6- Ibn ʿAsākir records in his History (19/73/2) that, in the narrative of the crucifixion of Ibn al-Zubayr, his mother Asmāʾ bint Abī Bakr came with her face unveiled and smiling.
